This Weekend
« on: July 06, 2010, 10:03:29 PM »
This weekend sees the Festival of 1000 bikes at Mallory Park.

I'm off up there on Friday night and camping for the weekend. I've dusted all my gear off and all I need is a few more gas bottles.

I'm going up on the Harley because I can and I want to meander up there via the lanes.

There will "parade" laps going over the Saturday and Sunday so there will lots of sights with the smell of Castrol R hanging in the air  ;D

Full report on Monday with possibly too many photos to see.
